If a factually correct message is sent too late for the receiver to meet the deadline, which communication quality has failed?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Timeliness.
Timeliness means delivering information early enough for the receiver to understand it and act within the required period. A message may contain accurate facts and correct language yet fail in practice if it arrives after the opportunity to act has passed. The problem is not grammar, humour, or a silent cue; it is delayed communication.
